About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Romantic
Great for creative cocktails

Inside Yours Truly DC Hotel, Mercy Me is a vibrant blend of South American flavors, inventive cocktails, and lively energy. More than a restaurant, it’s a place where tradition and innovation collide, celebrating the evolution of Latin America’s dynamic food scene.

This season, step onto the patio behind Mercy Me for our latest transformation—The Blossom Garden, inspired by the beauty of Japanese Sakura Blossoms. While our menu stays rooted in South American flavors, we’re introducing a Nikkei-inspired section, paying homage to the Japanese influence on Peruvian and Brazilian cuisine.

Here, delicate Japanese techniques meet bold Latin ingredients, blending umami depth with bright, citrusy spice. Of course, you’ll still find the Mercy Me favorites you love, alongside new dishes that bridge continents in unexpected ways.

Saturday night dinner at 7pm; not for family and conversation. Also, did not know that it was a Hotel Bar that is also a Restaurant, so it had that vibe. Outdoor seats are there, it would have been great if they served food there, but they don’t, or at least didn’t the night that we were there. The service though was excellent and attentive. Food was also very good. Overall pricey. Probably would be a great place for a lively dinner date or friends night out. Oh, and one more thing. Skip the mixed drinks- they are overpriced and very under-poured by the bartender. 90% ice on a $15 nonalcoholic drink. An old fashioned with less than an ounce of scotch.
